At a recent display, I took these pictures of Anne Boleyn, Elizabeth II and Mary Queen of Scots. The models were very impressive and the clothes very fine although the light was poor and I was working without the aid of a tripod. The other problem is that the EOS 5 gave up half way through. It had an incident with a broken strap and the floor and although I have managed to patch it up, it’s not going to last much longer.
I haven’t had much experience of models before and these two were capable of seeing my camera, taking up a pose and staring down the lens with such confidence that nearly I fumbled the shot. These two are not intimidated by a telephoto zoom.
